EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable page from the Charter of Kelso Abbey, featuring an exquisite illuminated initial. Created by the English School in the 12th century, this vellum masterpiece depicts King David I and his grandson Malcolm IV in stunning detail. The illuminated initial is adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colors, capturing the grandeur of these medieval Scottish monarchs. King David I, known for his reign from 1084 to 1153, stands tall with a sword in one hand and a sceptre in another, symbolizing his authority and power. Beside him stands his grandson Malcolm IV, who ruled from 1141 to 1165. Every element within this artwork tells a story - from their regal crowns to the Latin text surrounding them. The manuscript itself holds historical significance as it was once part of the collection belonging to the Duke of Roxburghe. Preserved at the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh, this page serves as a testament to both artistic skill and royal lineage. It invites us into a world long gone but forever captured on vellum. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back through time to witness an era filled with majesty and intrigue. This print allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural importance as an artifact that connects us with our rich past.
